FBI Foils Plots To Sell Nuclear Material To IS

Gangs of smugglers have tried to sell highly-radioactive material to Islamic State militants, an investigation has found.

Authorities working with the FBI have foiled four plots in the last five years involving groups with Russian connections seeking to do deals with Middle Eastern extremists. The most recent case, in February, involved a smuggler looking for an Islamic State buyer for enough deadly caesium to contaminate hundreds of homes and offices. Undercover investigations centred on impoverished Moldova, sandwiched between Romania and Ukraine in eastern Europe, found:  :: In 2011, a group led by a shadowy Russian known as "The Colonel" - believed to be an officer with Russia's FSB intelligence agency - tried arrange the sale of bomb-grade uranium and blueprints for a dirty bomb to a man from Sudan. The plot was disrupted in a raid on the middleman's home but The Colonel escaped and authorities do not know if he has more nuclear material.
